To ensure you get the best performance from your FM wireless stereo sound system please read this manual carefully.

IMPORTANT

Read these instructions. All the safety and operating instructions should be read before using the wireless headphone system.

Check if the voltage indicated on the type plate of the adapter corresponds to the local mains voltage before connecting to the mains power supply.

Remove the batteries from the headphone's battery compartment and disconnect the adapter from the mains if the system is not in use for a long period.

Prevent fire or shock hazard: do not expose this equipment to humidity, rain, sand or excessive heat caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight.

Radio equipment for wireless audio applications is not protected against disturbance from other radio services.

IMPORTANT

Before using the FM headphone for the first time, please ensure that the batteries are fully charged for about 16 hours. This will guarantee a longer operating lifetime of the batteries.
